If your Device has been modified, this will not necessarily work.

Ipod disabled & not recognized in windows 7 or itunes

My son disabled his ipod touch 4th gen trying to get into it, he planned to give it to his cousin so I just removed the device from his Apple acnt. However, it's still disabled & now not recognized in Windows 7 or by I-Tunes on any computer or usb we try, but it does charge by usb or wall charger. I am not super familiar with Apple products & need some advice if anyone has any. Thanks!

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
Also try on another computer

My daughter forgot her password and now her ipod has locked her out and says disabled connect to itunes. The computer which this ipod was synced has crashed. How can I fix this?

My daughter forgot her password and now her ipod has locked her out ir says disabled connect to itunes. The computer she last synced to has crashed. How can I unlock this ipod?

The device will have to be restored but without the last computer it was synced to, that's not a possibility.
Take the iPod to an Apple store or Apple certified repair shop.
You will need a computer in order to sync, restore, and update the iPod in the future.

IPod is not recognized in windows

My iPod is not recognized in either Windows 7 or iTunes. The iPod was jail breaked and that may have an impact. I did a reset to remove all files and now all I can do with it is view the logo on the screen. Help.

Jailbreaking voids the Apple warranty and also means that you will not get any support from Apple, including from this Apple forum. Jailbreaking can't be discussed in this Apple forum.
Unauthorized modification of iOS has been a major source of instability, disruption of services, and other issues

IPod Touch not recognized by Windows Explorer.

My iPod Touch is shown in iTunes' list of devices but is not recognized by Windows Explorer. Another possibly consequential symptom is that iTunes will not start when the device is connected to the computer. Any help appreciated.
Windows 7 Pro, IE9, have verified latest version of iTunes.

If your iPod is recognized by iTunes (and by your photo app as a camera), then that's how it should be. To startup iTunes when the iPod is connected, check the appropriate option on the iPod's Summary page in iTunes.

Ipod touch not recognized by windows 7

Hello,
I know this is a commonly asked issue on these forums. So I will be as thorough as possible. I am using an ipod touch first gen running iOS 3.0. I am trying to sync it up to my computer which is running windows 7 profession service pack 1. I have followed the steps on the apple help guide and with apple device manager running automatically, I cannot get the device to work. I have reinstalled itunes and the ipod has a charge (for the time being). I was wondering if anyone had any more tips or tricks to get my ipod to be recognized? (My usb ports all work and if I plug it into my parents computer it is recognized there).

The symptoms are a bit different, but since you've got an nVidia chipset and (presumably) at least 4 GB of RAM, I think the first thing to do is make sure you've applied the *Microsoft Host Controller Driver Update* available for you at your drivers and downloads page at HP:
[HP Pavilion Elite e9120f Desktop PC > Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit) > Software & Driver Downloads: Microsoft Host Controller Driver Update|http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=pv -78469-1&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&lang=en&os=4063&product=3970019]
With that update in place, does the Touch behave a bit better when you plug her into the PC?

Iphone 3G not recognized in Windows XP or seen in iTunes

I recently updated my itunes to iTunes 10. When I plug in my iphone 3g to the usb port, all that happens is that Windows recognizes and installs a camera device. The iphone is not being seen. iTunes also does not recognize the iphone under devises. I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes per the recommendations on the apple support website. To no avail. In the devices section in Windows, the iphone is not showing up. I have tried several usb ports on the computer and none of them show the iphone. When I took the phone to work and plugged it into the computer at work, Windows XP immediately recognized it and so did iTunes. At work, the iTunes is iTunes 9.
I'm not sure what do to. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

If I had to take a wild guess it would be that you have a problem with the USB bus on your computer. Since you tried connecting the phone to another computer and it worked that would rule out the problem being on your computer. The only other idea I have is that if you didn't use the same dock cable on both computers that it could be the cable, but I would assume that you used the same cable both times. I would recommend checking to see if any other USB peripherals have problems connecting to your computer as well.

IPod Shuffle Not Recognized In Windows Or iTunes v7.0 - What Now?

Hello everyone,
I am having the same problem as many who have posted here. I have upgraded my software to iTunes v7.0.1.8. I also accepted the auto update for my iPod Shuffle - 512GB 1st Gen to v 1.44 (I believe). Of course, now my Shuffle is not recognized in iTunes and is only recognized in Windows for less than 5 seconds (as I have monitored it). I am listing below all of the actions I have taken today.
As none of these have worked, my question is now what? Does anyone have any other suggestions before I take the dreaded step of calling support? Any help is appreciated.
I am not happy with this upgrade issue at all. I expect much better from Apple.
Steps Already Taken:
1. Reset iPod.
2. Set Terminal Services to "Manual" and restarted my laptop PC.
3. Changed all USB Root Hub entries power management options to "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power option" and rebooted.
4. Assigned my external hard drive a different letter as it was assigned to "E" and tech support documentation suggested I changed it - I changed it to "M".
5. I stopped the iPod Service via the Services and Application interface from My Computer/Manage, reattached the Shuffle, and started the iPod Service. The Shuffle was still not recognized.
6. I uninstalled iTunes 7.0.1.8, the Apple Software update and QuickTime. I deleted all temp directories; program files folders and all possible traces of all three pieces of this software. I also deleted my iTunes library. I reinstalled all of this software and re-built my Library. NONE OF THIS WORKED!
My 30GB Video iPod works fine and always has - it is only the shuffle for which I have this issue any only since the upgrade.
What do I do now? If no one has another fix, I will be forced to call Tech Support after an experience with them over a year ago I would almost rather throw this thing away!

qswh - I too cannot play the songs that are loaded on the shuffle. Additionally, I get a green & orange light when I plug it into a USB port and then I either get a blinking orange light or a solid orange light from there after.

IPod is not recognized by Windows, iTunes or Device Manager

I'm running Windows XP with external hard drive. When hard drive is connected, iPod will not sync and I get message stating "USB Device Not Recognized. One of the USB devices had malfunctioned..."
When disconnect, iPod will sync. However, iTunes is on external drive; therefore musc is not syncing onto iPod. I've attempted the 5 R's as well as searching for iPod in Device Mananger. When iPod is conncected, it is listed in Devce Manage as "Unknown Device." Articles to solve recommend relettering device, bu how do I get it to be recognized by Device Manager?

I HAVE A SIMILAR PROBLEM TO THAT I JUST BOUGHT MY 30GB IPOD VIDEO ABOUT 4 HOURS AGO, SINCE THEN I HAVE BEEN REALLY STRUGGLING TO INSTALL IT. A SOON AS I GOT IT, I DID EXACTLY WHAT IT SAID, I WENT TO WWW.APPLE.COM/IPOD/START AND DOWNLOADED THE NEWEST ITUNES VERSION. THEN I PLUGGED IN MY IPOD TO MY COMPUTER, AND ALL THAT HAPPENS IS A LITTLE BUBBLE OPENS UP AND SAYS "FOUND NEW HARDWARE" WHEN I CLICK THAT, IT OPENS UP, AND I CLICK "INSTALL THE SOFTWARE AUTOMATICALLY" WHERE IT SAYS IT, THEN I CLICK NEXT AND WAIT. AFTER, IT SAYS "THE HARDWARE WAS NOT INSTALLED BECAUSE THE WIZARD CANNOT FIND THE NECESARRY SOFTWARE".AFTER I WENT TO WWW.APPLE.COM TO FIND OUT WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS, I'VE LOOKED THROUGH AND READ EVERY ARTICLE THAT CAN PERTAIN TO MY SITUTAION, BUT NONE HAVE HELPED ME I AM DISPLEASED TO SAY, THE LAST ARTICLE I READ WAS THIS ONE:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305136
BUT EVEN THAT DOES NOT HELP ME BECAUSE WHEN I GET TO STEP 8 WHICH SAYS "Locate the iPod in this list. In some cases one of the entries will have "iPod" in its name. If no such entries are present, the iPod is most likely represented by "USB Mass Storage Device." I LOOK FOR WHERE IT SAYS "IPOD" OR "USB MASS STORAGE DEVICE" UNDER "UNIVERSAL SERIAL BUS CONTROLLERS, AND CANNOT FIND EITHER THING..I HAVE RESTARTED MY COMPUTER A NUMBER OF TIMES, I HAVE EVEN UNISTALLED ITUNES THEN REINSTALLED IT I HAVE STRETCHED EVERY OPTION AND NOTHING HAS WORKED..CAN SOME ONE PLEASE HELP ME??..I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM FOR 4 HOURS STRAIGHT STOPPING ONLY TO GO TO THE BATHROOM AND GRAB A BITE TO EAT..

Can anyone help? My 30GB iPod is not recognized by windows.

"USB Device Not Recognized" is the error report I get each time I connect my iPod to my USB port. I tested my USB ports with other devices and they worked normally. Has anyone had similar issues? Can anything be done without sending my iPod in for repairs? Any advice shall be appreciated.

I'm having the same issue! Our IT department thinks it's an iPod driver issue, but I've just installed the latest updater, so it wouldn't "appear" that it would ne that.
